## 🚀 What is this?

This project wants to be a macOS mod manager for [Kerbal Space Program](https://kerbalspaceprogram.com).
Instead of trying to create a new standard for mod distribution, the aim of this project is to be a more Mac-friendly
client to the very good [CKAN](https://github.com/KSP-CKAN/CKAN) mod repository.

## 👽 Why not use the original CKAN Client?

While the original CKAN client is very good on Windows, people sometimes have trouble getting it to work on
macOS. I also want to try my hand at improving the user interface somewhat.

## 🛰 What is the development status?

Generally speaking, we are far from being finished.

- You can parse download and parse CKAN files
- You can browse the mod repository
- You can install mods
- You can remove mods
- You **cannot** upgrade mods

## 👾 Name and License
